Too bad Rumsfeld is backing away from his comments

Because he's right:

A speech last week in which Rumsfeld likened critics of the Bush administration's war strategy to those who tried to appease the Nazis in the 1930s prompted many Democrats to call for his resignation and boosted support for a congressional resolution expressing no confidence in him. Rumsfeld later said his remarks were misrepresented and that he was cautioning against a repeat of errors made in the past, not accusing the administration's critics of trying to appease the terrorists.

And this man doesn't know his history, do we really want him for our president:

"The most significant comparison with World War II is that we soon, will have been in Iraq as long as World War II, with much less success," Biden said.

Um, Biden, our troops are still in Germany.
